 In Lightdash, metrics are used to summarize dimensions or, sometimes, other metrics.

+### 1. Using the column `meta` tag
 
 To add a metric to Lightdash using the `meta` tag, you define it in your dbt project under the dimension name you're trying to describe/summarize.
 
 ```yaml
 models:
-  - name: my_model
+  - name: orders_model
     columns:
-      - name: user_id # dimension name of your metric
+      - name: user_id # dimension your metric is aggregating
         meta:
           metrics:
-            num_unique_user_ids: # name of your metric
+            distinct_user_ids: # name of your metric
               type: count_distinct # metric type
-            num_user_ids:
-              type: count
+      - name: revenue # dimension your metric is aggregating
+        meta:
+          metrics:
+            sum_revenue: # name of your metric
+              type: sum # metric type
 ```

 ```
 
+<Warning>
+  **Non-aggregate metrics** (`number`, `boolean`, etc.) can only reference other metrics in `sql:` since they are inserted directly into the generated SQL query without being wrapped in an aggregate function.
+
+  **Aggregate metrics** (`sum`, `count_distinct`, etc.) can only reference dimensions since they are wrapped in an aggregate function before being added to the generated SQL query. Wrapping an aggreate function in another aggregate function will cause an error.

 ## Metric Categories
 
 Each metric type falls into one of these categories. The metric categories tell you whether the metric type is an aggregation and what type of fields the metric can reference:

 ### Aggregate metrics
 
 Aggregate metric types perform (surprise, surprise) aggregations. Sums and averages are examples of aggregate metrics: they are measurements summarizing a collection of data points.
